Continuing Education

[+][-]How do I find out what continuing education credits are available for one of your seminars? How do I get the credit?

Seminar continuing education credits can be found on seminar brochure or on the seminar’s webpage under the “CE Credits” tab. If your profession is not listed in the brochure, please contact your board to determine your continuing education requirements and to check for reciprocal approval. Many boards will approve our seminars based on other board approvals shown in brochure. A Certificate of Successful Completion will only be issued if you have complied with and completed all required procedures. We provide all attendees with written proof of attendance, but you must attend the entire seminar to receive full credit. Availability of partial attendance credits and home study credit options depends on your profession and the requirements of your licensing board.

Certificates of Completion are distributed at the conclusion of the live seminar for those who pre-register and are in full attendance. However, Certificates of Completion may not be present for late registrants and will not be available at the seminar location for walk-in registrants. If Certificate of Completion is not available at the seminar, you will receive a Letter of Attendance. The Letter of Attendance is your proof that you attended the seminar until you receive your Certificate of Completion. Partial Certificates of Completion (if your board allows) and certificates for late and walk-in registrants will be emailed to you within 30 days of the seminar date.
